Favourite Destinations (Scottish Borders)

Scotland's Border country stretches over 1,800 square miles of stunning landscape imbued with dramatic history and rich cultural heritage. Merely an hour away from the cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow, the Scottish Borders, an area which draws together the very best elements of traditional Scotland, is often ignored by visitors, despite its many attractions. When staying in Scottish Borders holiday cottages, you can visit Castle ruins, stately mansions, museums, abbeys and monuments from the Galloway on the west coast of the Borders, to the Berwickshire villages in the east, and from the Lothians in the north to the English border. These lands were caught in the 300-year feud and remnants of the Borders people's struggle to preserve them can be found throughout the vast expanse.
